Surface temp data is cherry-picked and then averaged over huge geographical areas. Its all a scam. And remember, if surface temps rise, but the atmospheric temperatures do not, then they are actually disproving the man-made global warming hypothesis. The hypothesis states that elevated CO2 in the atmosphere will increase atmospheric temps and surface temps will follow. If doctored surface temps rise but atmospheric data from satellites and weather balloons do not, then the elevated surface temps must be from some other cause. The claim made headlines around the world, but yesterday it emerged that GISS’s analysis – based on readings from more than 3,000 measuring stations worldwide – is subject to a margin of error. Nasa admits this means it is far from certain that 2014 set a record at all. Yet the Nasa press release failed to mention this, as well as the fact that the alleged ‘record’ amounted to an increase over 2010, the previous ‘warmest year’, of just two-hundredths of a degree – or 0.02C. The margin of error is said by scientists to be approximately 0.1C – several times as much. As a result, GISS’s director Gavin Schmidt has now admitted Nasa thinks the likelihood that 2014 was the warmest year since 1880 is just 38 per cent. However, when asked by this newspaper whether he regretted that the news release did not mention this, he did not respond. Another analysis, from the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature (BEST) project, drawn from ten times as many measuring stations as GISS, concluded that if 2014 was a record year, it was by an even tinier amount.
